Genetics in Context offers a dual timeline, with scientific events (especially those relevant to
classical genetics) presented against those of general historical and cultural
interest. Dynamic links are provided to relevant documents at the ESP site and
elsewhere. The timeline contains a big HTML file, so give it time to load.

This is a new feature, intended to help readers place genetic events in historical context.
For example, did you know that Darwin published Origin of Species the year before
Lincoln was elected President, while Mendel published his findings the year after Lincoln
was assassinated? Check out these and other events in Genetics in
Context.
